im not one to say I have used all 3, ive only used CM7. it was good. actually even MIUI is good but u gotta know how to find your wakelocks with betterbatterystats. that way you can optimize battery life regardless of whatever rom you're on.
I could go 1-2 days on my MIUI currently FR rom, moderate usage, all my syncs are off, i manually refresh for notifications.

What do you mean "but u gotta know how to find your wakelocks with better batterystats" ? I usually dont have anything running in the background...

I have used CM 7, all MIUI, Lewa, and Mokee, and Ice BlacK too
In my view
1. CM7 have better battery life (but as I use to play 3 D games I won't prefer)
2. Second is Galnet MIUI, built by elol, decent battery life with good performance.
3. Third is Mokee, It is the best ROM for gamer and for others too who don't use to play game. It almost serve me for whole day with games, music and all mail, FB, Linkedin sync on for 24 hrs.

For me best choice is "Bumblebee" it's really a stable ROM and give's really great battery life, Best in which i have used.
In term's of Gaming this ROM is really great, it give's games extra smoothness to Game's by increasing FPS with help of it's new GPU derive.
This all make this ROM as my daily use ROM.

google xda betterbatterystats. download the app and follow the thread, those are uber battery sensitive people in the community.
so you manually sync all your apps as well? even calendar? and leave gtalk signed out?
wakelocks are what keeps the phone away from entering deep sleep. from the betterbatterystats app, if u see ur device entering 96% and above Deep Sleep after a night's full charge and allowed to idle, then good job, no matter what rom ur running u should be doing it right.
wakelocks are what cause a battery drain even when your phone is off idle while u sleep. it isnt only about background apps.

Yes,,I was use betterbatterystats,,I have managed all wakelocks and partial too,,it's give me battery life more time
But battery use info from setting doesn't change,,still give me "Android System" for highest % deal,,

flash stock rom and see if the problem persists. If it does return your phone and get a new one. You've got no other go!!!

post your dump here. and also at the BBS thread where u got the app.
so unless you are getting 96% and above deep sleep, id say you have not completely managed your wakelocks yet. also what are your governor and i/o scheduler settings? OC'ed at? do you have a screen off profile to lower clock speed when screen off?
battery use info may show that, but most important is u charge your phone to full, let it discharge while u sleep and wake up next day, OBTAIN 96% DEEP SLEEP OR HIGHER. figure out what are the wakelocks in BBS. if BBS is managed correctly, even if your android system is using highest %, no big deal, more importantly your battery isn't draining like mad.

Best rom for Battery?

Hey guys. I only want to ask which rom do you think is the bettest for battery life.
Thanks.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

My suggestion would be stock gingerbread with speedmod kernel k2-12, i used to get around 4 days with normal use.

That sounds nice. Do you have heavy use of yout phone? Or only deep sleep all the time?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

I use it for playing games, little music, calls and messaging. Sometimes connect to Wi-fi. With the same in ICS i get around 2 days.

okay thank you i´ll try. :fingers-crossed:

to set expectations straight, expect thought about 4.5 hours nonstop usage on gb with speedmod kernel.
4 hours on ics with speedmod
alk stock dont expect more then 3 to 3.5 hours.
you only get 2 days if you dont synch, barely use phone and are in good reception area with data switched off always.
Note general tips which can be found in the 10000plus threads about battery drain and how to analyse deepsleep issues

I don't know whether you like gingerbread roms or not , but till date the rom with which I got maximum battery backup with modeate to heavy usage was CheckRom Revo HD V6. This rom never lags , best battery life , and good speed .
If you are Gingerbread hater and ICS lover , then you can try Rocketrom v7( very good battery life with the included kernel , and would be much better with Speedmod Kernel (latest version) ). And then you have CleaNote V2.30 ( V3.0 has bluetooth glitches but its faster , if you are bluetooth user i would suggest you to stick with V2.30 ) , I personally love CleaNote because it has stock look and very fluidic :good: and as the tagline says 'You dont want any theme forced down to your throat '. KingDroid are good at speed but many have reported few glitches with it , you may try it if you like ( I dont like KingDroid , its sth personal ). If you hate Samsung's bloatware then we have Cassie's XtraLite rom for your rescue :cyclops:. Its a good rom too .
Well finally to end , I use cyanogenmod 9 and i update it everyday and with each update it gets more fluid and responsive, fast , smooth . i just love cyanogenmod9 ( waiting for cm10 ).
ParanoidAndroid are for ppl who love fun , who want to showoff their phone , the ability of their phone , the sweet hybrid interface of their phone , its for geeks :-0 .
Make a choice or try all of them :good::good:

I am using CLASSIC V1+15 toggle with MOD V1 which is ICS 4.0.4, and I also updated kernel to chainfire LRG, which is more stable and smooth, battery life is excellent comparatively to all other ROMs so far.
Which is around 4% drain per hour, I have (facebook, wechat, LINE, mitalk, whatsapp, email, exchange service, maps, mixed chinese input, make your own clock) running and leaving it on idle.

For the past 2 years of beeing a S galaxy user, I've quite looked for best battery life at top performance. Most of the time, battery life is no longer measured in "days" of usage , like we used to do with our Nokia phones. Nowadays, you ten to look at display (screen on) time , CPU profiles, and also connectivity patterns.
You can think of battery life as a factor of the above mentioned, however I think that display time is the most important parameter related to battery life. CPU profiles, connectivity, tend to work only when you have your screen on, and from my experience, you tend not to extend your usage time by more than 10-20%.
So as a conclusion, I did not expect a specific rom / kernel configuration to offer more "screen on" time but to offer a more faster way to do my tasks therefore I did more tasks in almost the same display time.
At the end of the day, it is more important how you USE your device rather than finding a "magical" combination that will increase your battery life.

KID + SpeedMod

+1 for GB (i was using checkrom but i'm sure any gb rom will give similar effects) with Speedmod.
If you make setcpu to 200mhz on screen off, i find it uses almost no power at all when it's on standby.
Like it was on 77% when i went to bed.
Woke up in the morning and it was on 78% (i was like lolwut).
Yay for setcpu.
But seriously though, any GB rom will give you considerably more battery life than any ics rom.

ROM
The best ROM for a battery-HALF ILLUSION and placed on the scale smartas governor.
Try and tell me your impressions.

The myth 2 is the best for battery and speed. I use it every day with wi-fi or data activate using whatsapp, sms, and music without battery problems
But i haven't activate the background data!

which app2sd script will suitable for myth 2

Correct me if I'm wrong but CM7 consumes more than stock (bloatware free), so I'd suggest optimized stock roms instead if you want battery. There are a2sd for stock as well.

I have no complaint's about using Stocklite V7.1, I too use whatsapp all day and I usually have around 30% left.

I'm using the myth 2 for about two weeks now and i have to say it's one of the best stock based rom i've ever seen.
A2SDGUI is preinstalled in this rom and working perfectly for me.

Thread moved to Q & A section, post I'm the relevant section next time.

With data network enable all day I don't think there's any ROM can make your battery last for 24-26 hrs. I think The Myth 2 probably the best ROM about battery, but I don't think it can make your phone survive for 24-26 WITH data always on...

i've been using Apocalypse for a while now can get around 24-30 hours out of it with 3g n wifi on most of the day but i have underclocked with setCPU to save that bit more power and dont use video on there that much

Stocklite is the best!
Even a Adrenaline rom is pretty good.
Go for a stock rom, You'll get more battery life

Myth 2 best
I am using Myth rom for more than 2 months now without any problems..................try it once i think u will never go to any other

ohk lemme try myth 2

I am also searching the answer for this question that is there any rom can last about 12 hrs continuous data uses on 2G?
But unfortunately there is no rom can fulfill your expectation.
But here i have some suggession
Install stocklite 7.1,battery extender version 1.5, slaidboost 480 and set a profile of underclocking cpu in set cpu.
This is enough for it or otherwise
You have to change battery with more mAh like 1600 mAh or simply change the phone.

Did you wipe the cach and dalvik??? Worth trying this to see if this resolves the issue but backup your files first.
If not then, back everything up and try and full device restore.

Is that a full stock of LG ics? I think not much you can do about that. Other than trying one of the custom ROMs and getting battery efficient kernels.

Stock ICS has pretty decent battery life..I`ll suggest you to calibrate your battery once and see what the result is..

Also here I report high battery drain.
Stock ICS ROM, rooted at first, then tried a battery usage data reset with no result.
Factory restore, same.
Wiped caches and dalvik cache (with CW recovery), phone bricked.
Un-bricked and reinstalled ICS stock, with CivZ_StormTrooper_rev3 kernel mod. Now with No Frills CPU & Juicedefender free, less than 10 hours without using phone (just data / h3g mode on).
First item in consumption list, "Android OS".
Any ideas?
Thank you

First. you should think about using an custom ROM based on stock. carburano Rom is Good but also Jishnu Sur´s rom is Awesome.
If you afraid to Root you Phone, it´s as easy a 1 2 3 nowadays just use this awesome Tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020737
Reason: Many of programms you don´t need are removed my first consumption is WIFI. So even if i have WIFI on all day, my phones is steady till the night.
Second. Reset Battery status in CWM
Third. You using a damn smartphone dont expect s**t that this will hold many days this is no Nokia 3210 BTW if you use it that means u use Battery Facebook BTW is one if the most active Programms i know. There´s "high drain" in Order.

Installed Optithrust 1.1 V30A/B ROM, baseband 1035,21_20121130.
Pretty cool ROM and included apps, lot better than LG's stock BUT....
But my battery discharges at tremendous rate: 10 or 15% in 1 hour. Autosync, GPS, Wifi disabled, screen brightness at 20%.
Leaving phone without PIN (white keyboard with PIN request) drain 5% battery in 2 mins.
Battery usage lists

Detail on Cell Stanby
Time on: 27m 37s
Detail on Android OS says:
CPU Total 1m 13s
Keep awake 12m 36s
I'm not sure if before ICS upgrade the "keep awake" time was so high, but I remember it was more lower than Time On. Just now Android OS is passed to 1st place in consumption list
How can I discover if it's an Android or battery related problem?

No clues? I'm trying with a new battery but it takes some time to achieve full performance, but for now it's on 10 hours.
There are apps for choose apps and services running? Easy to use, possibly... Auto start manager is a pain... something like bum on linux

i like the ES-task manager with root permissions it shows you what could be blocked autorunning and what you should let active

Without changing your system you could give "Juice Defender" a try, just look up in Appstore. I have no experience with this app, but it trys to defend your juice
I handled it by using some custom rom (recommending 4.1.2 and not 4.2.1 -> better battery life so far, look up some CM 10 ROM)
in dev forum pengus77 is working on some awesome kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097788) that also raises battery life enormous.
with all that stuff my 2X works very nice since a few days.
BUT: read instructions befor you do anything please!

how can i have good battery life on cm?

how can i have good battery life on cm7/10? whitout low brightness,no sync,bluetooth because i dont tick those just sometimes wifi/3g and messaging and maybe 30 min on day listening music.. and i have just 8 h battery life.. how can i improve it?

You want battery life with also 1.5ghz overclock right? I hope you're kidding because it's impossible to get battery life without sacrifing something. If you get the 3000mha battery you'll get awnsome battery life even with overclock but with stock battery turn off all of that useless function and your battery will last some hours more. If you're using android 4.X use greenfy to freeze apps you don't need to keep run in background and choose wisely the cpu governor. Also there are many guides here on XDA about how to increase battery life on Android phone.

Hi geo95cornel, check out my guide on improving performance & battery life. It might help.
